MLB Ejection 028 - Jansen Visconti (1; Joe Espada)

[Lindsay]

HP Umpire Jansen Visconti ejected Astros manager Joe Espada (general strike zone complaint) during the break before the top of the 9th inning of the #Astros-#Cubs game. Chicago had just concluded its turn at-bat in the bottom of the 8th, and there were no contested calls during that inning, the reason for ejection was irrecusable. At the time of the ejection, the Cubs were leading, 3-1. The Cubs ultimately won the contest, 3-1.

This is Jansen Visconti (52)'s 1st ejection of 2024.

This is the 28th ejection report of the 2024 MLB regular season.

This is the 13th manager ejection of 2024. Ejection Tally: 13 Managers, 4 Coaches, 11 Players.

This is Houston's 1st ejection of 2024, T-2nd in the AL West (OAK 2; HOU, LAA, SEA, TEX 1).

This is Joe Espada's first career MLB ejection.

This is Jansen Visconti's 1st ejection since Sept 19, 2023 (Mark Kotsay; QOC = U [Check Swing]).
